Better Heart Monitoring During Sedation for Digestive Procedures
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of monitoring your heart and vital signs during a sedated procedure to examine your digestive tract (ERCP). Researchers want to see if more detailed monitoring helps keep you safer during the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
